..PRODUCT APPLICATION .
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE
STARTING PROJECT
PAINTING CONDITIONS
Use outdoors or in a well ventilated area such as an open
garage. Apply when temperature is between 50-90ºF (10-3C)
and humidity is below 85% to ensure proper drying. Avoid spray
application in very windy and dusty conditions. Cover
surrounding area to protect from spray mist.
SURFACE PREPARATION
Bare Metal or Sound Rust Surfaces: Remove all dirt, grease,
oil, salt and chemical contaminants by washing the surface with
a commercial detergent, or other suitable cleaning method.
Rinse with fresh water and allow to thoroughly dry. Remove tar,
dirt, grease, and oil with a solvent cleaner such as Rust-Oleum
®
Wax & Tar Remover. Sand the entire surface to be painted with
120-220 grit sandpaper and then remove all sanding dust with a
clean cloth or vacuum to ensure proper adhesion. Protect and
mask-off all surrounding areas to prevent paint splatter and
overspray.
Previously Painted/Coated Surfaces: Use a wire brush to
remove any loose or peeling paint, rust or coatings so that the
surface is clean and completely bare. To promote proper
adhesion, completely scuff sand and feather edge the entire area
to be painted with 120-220 grit sandpaper. Remove all sanding
dust with a clean cloth or vacuum.
..PRODUCT APPLICATION (cont.) .

release lead dust. LEAD IS TOXIC. EXPOSURE TO LEAD
DUST CAN CAUSE SERIOUS ILLNESS, SUCH AS BRAIN
DAMAGE, ESPECIALLY IN CHILDREN. PREGNANT WOMEN
SHOULD ALSO AVOID EXPOSURE. Wear a NIOSH-approved
respirator to control lead exposure. Clean up carefully with a
HEPA vacuum and a wet mop. Before you start, find out how to

Combine by volume, 1- part of Rust-Oleum Primer Surfacer with
an equal 1-part of Rust-Oleum
®
Specialty Reducer. If using a
conventional spray gun, the air pressure should be adjusted to
30-40 pounds. Apply 2-3 medium coats and allow each coat to
dry to touch before applying the next coats. Allow a minimum of
60-90 minutes dry time before block sanding with 320 grit
sandpaper. Brush application of Rust-Oleum Primer Surfacer

humidity. Allow more time at cooler temperatures. The first coat
will dry to touch in 10-15 minutes. Apply a second coat after the
first coat is dry to touch. Allow a minimum of 60-90 minutes
before block
